It doesn't work with lte as far as I can tell, which makes me sad.

It's smooth, everything works pretty well, but it isn't usable as daily driver

 

[benyamin22]

is a bit complicated,why they didnt provide any zip file which they did for nexus 4

For God Sake someone read what he asks!

His question was literally answered in the first post. But for anyone with an aversion to links, you can't flash it with TWRP.

So does this mean I can just backup my current ROM, wipe and then flash all zips except for the recovery and then I have Ubuntu? Can I go back to my current ROM with TWRP exclusively?

I'm a bit worried about, like, everything.

Sure, no problem.

Just be sure to get rid of /data/ubuntu before your next nandroid. On my device I always fail to restore when it's in.

which file ?

saucy-preinstalled-boot-armhf+maguro.img 

saucy-preinstalled-recovery-armel+maguro.img

saucy-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+maguro.zip 

saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

 

[itasoulas]

saucy-preinstalled-boot-armhf+maguro.img 

saucy-preinstalled-recovery-armel+maguro.img

saucy-preinstalled-system-armel+maguro.img

saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+maguro.zip 

saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

first flash this: saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+maguro.zip
and then this: saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

make sure you do wipes before install. Reboot and you are good to go. Tried that last night but wasn't impressed!

I'm really interested on Ubuntu Touch, anyone with more comments about this last update? Is working well for daily use or just for test purpose ?
Thanks

Just for test...

Waiting for daily use release to make a decision with native app. I think this is one of the biggest flaws of android

 

[lonestrider]

is it ok (not affect anything) to not install the boot, recovery, and system img file?

 

[X1iser]

Just install with your recovery like itasoulas say :good:

first flash this: saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+maguro.zip
and then this: saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip

make sure you do wipes before install. Reboot and you are good to go. Tried that last night but wasn't impressed!
